Antonio Banderas Brings Godspell Back to Malaga for Autumn 2025

Antonio Banderas is set to revive the musical “Godspell” at the Teatro del Soho CaixaBank in Malaga. The show will open on October 30, 2025, and will continue for 10 weeks until early January 2026. Directed by Banderas, this rendition is adapted by Emilio Aragon and combines a blend of gospel, rock, and Latin music styles.
Revival of a Classic Musical
The 1971 Broadway hit, “Godspell,” is rejuvenated with Spanish elements like shadow puppetry, appealing to contemporary audiences. Based on the parables from the Gospel of Matthew, the production features tales of love, justice, and redemption. Catchy tunes such as “Day by Day” highlight the experience.
Talented Cast and Crew
- Ferran Faba stars as Jesus.
- Other notable performers include Angy Fernandez, Roko, Javier Ariano, and Aaron Cobos.
- Many cast members are returning from the 2022 production.
- This marks Banderas’ third directorial project at Teatro del Soho.
Banderas describes this revival as a secular tribute to the core tenets of Christianity, saying it speaks to a post-pandemic audience seeking connection. In support, free shuttle services from nearby towns enhance accessibility.
